These perform predefined sequences above-water radiometric following strict viewing geometry.

The Mar Menor is a hypersaline coastal lagoon in the southeast of Spain, which has experienced several eutrophication episodes recent years. In 2022, an area milky white turbid water appeared covering about 10 % its surface, and it been there ever since. A comprehensive field research was set up to assess origin this possible whiting event, including identification continental inputs, satellite imagery analyses physico-chemical properties column, sediment, planktonic benthic communities. Our observations indicate that turned due precipitation authigenic (formed where currently located) calcite as described events occurring other marine areas. addition very high turbidity, affected showed increased nutrient chlorophyll concentrations compared rest lagoon. altered conditions also communities led complete disappearance previously abundant vegetation (Caulerpa prolifera), thus influencing biogeochemical cycles.

With aim studying estuary throughout 4-year period (2017–2020), Sentinel-2 A/B twin satellites Copernicus programme were used thanks their 5-day 10 m temporal spatial resolution, respectively. Sea–land mapping was performed using Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform, selecting cloud-free Level 2A images computing statistics.

The Mar Menor hypersaline coastal lagoon has suffered serious degradation in the last three decades attributable to nutrient pollution. In 2015, experienced an intensive bloom of cyanobacteria that triggered a drastic change its ecosystem. Our analyses indicate phytoplankton 2016-2021 did not present seasonal variability pattern; community was mainly dominated by diatoms and punctually reached abundance peaks above 107 cell L-1 along with chlorophyll concentrations exceeding 20 μg L-1. predominant diatom genera during these blooms were different as well conditions under which they produced. These high abundances are unprecedented lagoon; fact, our data taxonomic composition, time variation patterns differ notably comparison published before 2015.

Abstract The frequency and severity of extreme events related to climate change have intensified worldwide in the last decades. It is documented that increasing rainfall flooding cause more nutrient runoff into waterbodies, initiating numerous harmful algal bloom (HAB) events, especially fragile ecosystems. We analyze dramatic economic damage one these episodes Mar Menor, largest salt-water lagoon Europe. show when public perceived environmental degradation, return on housing investment was 43% lower surroundings than similar neighboring zones 6 years after HAB (2015). This represents a loss wealth 4000 million euros, around ten times gains changing from dry-farming irrigated crops, which makes this ecosystem fragile. Hence, we quantify some consequences ecological deterioration linked Global Climate Change.

Ocean monitoring systems are designed for continuous of the seas and oceans to track their evolution thus anticipate environmental issues. However, they often based on Internet Things (IoT) that expensive, hard maintain, offer little spatial coverage. An emerging alternative is Satellite Remote Sensing (SRS) good geographical coverage but, as a reliable real-time system, also face several challenges such conditions, spatio-temporal granularity, terrain oleography, etc. This paper introduces an easy-to-use software tool crawl water-quality data from up 6 satellite instruments (i.e. Sentinel 3 A, 3B, NOAA VIIRS, SNPP Aqua MODIS, Terra MODIS) European Space Agency's (ESA) Coopernicus system NASA's Marine Environmental Monitoring Service.

Soils and riverbeds this area are highly polluted. Two Electrical Resistivity Imaging (ERI) profiles were carried out to obtain information about thickness deposits their internal structure. For Murla, a tributary El Miedo geophysical method imaged two different units: upper one characterized low resistivity values 5–8 m thickness, correlated with deposits; lower more resistive unit corresponding Paleozoic metasediments bedrock. The ERI profile transverse Las dry riverbed revealed existence three units. uppermost has lowest corresponds discharged riverbeds.
